BEHIND THE DESIGN
“
I’m so excited to share my new nature-inspired designs with you... I wanted to create a romantic effect, like the Giverny gardens the artist Claude Monet echoed on canvas. You can almost smell the blooming gardens and hear the hum of the wings. It’s fresh, colorful, happy art that you can take with you everywhere.I hope you enjoy wearing these pieces as much as I did creating them.

WATCH: DESIGNER'S PERSPECTIVE
Blanc Jardin
The name for this collection means "beautiful garden" in French, and what's more beautiful than a French garden? In her latest pieces, designer Catherine Hong seeks to capture the first buds of spring, following the frost of winter. Printed on luxe Italian croco-embossed leather in a snowy white, these colorful hand-painted florals make the perfect statement for the season.

Noir Jardin Against midnight hues, a palette of hand-painted violet and blue butterflies and flowers lend a magical quality to these printed leather accessories. This release from the Jardin Collection was inspired by a nighttime stroll, imitating the moonlight as it fell on a tapestry of flowers in this romantic garden scene.

BELLE JARDIN
Among the first pieces in this collection, this bag features more than 13,500 embroidered stitches on its butterfly, giving it both texture and intensely rich colors. The effect is brilliant, and perfectly captures the original inspiration—those idyllic gardens that French artist Claude Monet wandered. He spent his career recreating the fluttering and blooming beauties that graced France's lush landscapes. Catherine Hong has sought to do the same with her watercolors, creating wearable art you can carry everywhere!
